Umarex was founded in 1972 and has grown into the world's largest manufacturer of over-the-counter firearm replicas. The company is now in its second generation of family leadership and employs approximately 1,000 people worldwide. The core strategy that built the company: acquiring exclusive licenses to produce realistic replicas of well-known weapons that can be sold without firearm restrictions.

Umarex manufactures airguns across three primary power systems:

Umarex operates a worldwide distributor network shipping to every continent. The company actively seeks new distribution partners and maintains a dealer search tool on their website. Distributors can apply for partnership through their contact system.
Umarex.TV offers video content showcasing products and usage guides. Recall and safety announcements available on their website.
Energy outputs range from <1.0 J (light airsoft) to <40 J (high-power PCP rifles). Standard ammunition options include: - .177 BB (4.5mm) - .177 Diabolo/Pellet (4.5mm) - .22 Pellet (5.5mm) - Airgun darts (100-round packs available)
Models ship with or without silencers. Many CO₂ models include double-set configurations with spare slides and silencers.
"Spring power, CO₂ or compressed air – is that really the question? In everyday life we're constantly required to make decisions, some of which are very important. But our products are for having fun – so let's enjoy having a choice."
This philosophy reflects Umarex's approach: no single "best" airgun exists, only the right choice for each shooter's needs.
